Let me tell you, the 10.1" brakes are quite impressive.  I pulled my Jetta 
down from approximately 80mph(racing a SLOW A4 8V GTI) with no problems at 
all.  I outbraked him, because he went into the intersection.  I stopped with 
my front bumper over the big white line.  This was with 2 passnegers, all of 
the shit in my trunk(probably upwards of 150lbs), and about another 120lbs 
worth of luggage(I had just picked a friend up from the airport).  My GTI, 
with just me, and noting else in it, would have gone shooting through that 
intersection with the 9.4" fronts.  I was very impressed.  My friend(who is 
not into all of the car stuff...he drives an Escort) was petrified.  I can't 
wait to see what happens when I slap the 11" brakes on this thing...
